About the Item

Portuguese earthenware dish with bird. Polychrome decoration in soft tones with a small bird perched on a branch with leaves and berries in the centre. On the upper rim, the inscription ‘PASSARINHO TRIGUEIRO’ is written in blue capital letters, and the rim is outlined by a light orange frieze. This type of dish is typical of 20th century Portuguese popular production, combining simple decorative elements with motifs from nature and everyday expressions. It was common in rural homes or as a decorative wall piece, often hung with wire, as shown here. It's a piece that combines function and tradition, with ethnographic and collectible value. Worn, small flaws in the glaze and fading.
